Winnipeg goes for its second win in a row after ending a four-game slide with a 5-2 victory over Nashville on Saturday. Nino Niederreiter scored twice, and Eric Comrie stopped 20 of 22 shots for the Jets, who have won their past five Monday games. The Jets are 9-2 their past 11 against the Atlantic Division, and Buffalo is 1-6 its past seven after allowing two or fewer goals in its previous game. The Sabres have split their past 10 games after winning a 3-2 shootout at Minnesota two nights ago. They have lost six of seven home games to Winnipeg, and the Sabres have lost eight of 12 against Western Conference opponents. Comrie is probable tonight with a 2.91 goals-against average. Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen (3-3-1) is likely for Buffalo. Take the Jets.
